Have fun with this selectable pilot avatar based on Otto Pilot from the classic motion picture Airplane!
He's animated and is compatible with any plane that is set up with pilot and co-pilot nodes. This is a family friendly mod (no inappropriate innuendos) so don't worry. To select, navigate to the "Misc" tab in your options menu and cycle through pilot avatars.....you can't miss him.
Installation:
Delete the old krcustoms-otto-pilot folder from your community folder if needed. Unzip the downloaded folder into your community folder prior to starting MSFS. You may need to move any other pilot mods/skins from your community folder to a temporary location for this mod to work. Please let me know if you have issues with this.
Known issues:
- There is a clipping issue with the Airbus A320 seatbelts.
- I'm working to possibly add more sim driven animations, like having him panic when the aircraft stalls, etc.

Thanks for giving us Otto Pilot! He brings me so much joy. When I switch to drone mode to admire my ride, he's in there just smiling and scanning the skies for traffic. If he's sitting in the right seat, I just look over and say "Who loves to fly? This big galoot right here".

I love this. Airplane... That movie had a lot of groaners but man it was funny.
I wonder if you would make a smaller version. In the C152 he really fills the seat. I do have world scale set to 105 because at 100 the C152 cockpit seemed a bit tiny. Sliding that back to 100 though wouldn't slim Otto down much. Maybe a 2/3 and 3/4 sized offering?
